Description Horst H. von Brand 2011-01-14 20:49:46 UTC
Description of problem:
I tried to downgrade cups, which depends on cups-libs. There are around 4 versions of cups (and cups-libs) available, and the downgrade fails. If I downgrade cups and cups-libs, the command goes through (but then yum hangs, and something hogs the CPU and the disk forever)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.2.29-2.fc15.noarch

How reproducible:
No idea.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum downgrade cups
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Complaints that there are several versions of cups-libs, error.

Expected results:
Downgrade
